hey man what size motor is that?? cuz i cant fit my 289 in there with out it being to close to the radiator on my 42.... did u have to cut into the firewall?? beautiful truck tho forget wat these haters say!! lol
I give it a 5/10. First of all those are really ugly rims. Second you should fix it up instead of making it look all rusted up! Besides that is ok I guess.
@TheAZJacob It's a style, called rat rod...they are supposed to look ratty...hence the name, rat rod. And it's the builder's choice of how he wants to build his truck. If you don't have anything positive to say about it, you should probably just not say anything at all! With all of that being said, shawnmid, you did a great job! I love this truck!
@wayneerforsej Why would I dream of living some life like your's? I have the perfect girlfriend, I have a 68 plymouth barracuda 79 dodge powerwagon a 69 charger and next month im getting a 66 belveder. I live in a two story house, I have a wonderfull life. what do you do for a living? work in a stupid cheese plant? I happen to own three Dairys now. So yeah like I really want your life, fag
as an european I don't understand about rat rods.... but with the worn out look of the bodywork shouldn't there be old steel wheels under the package?
It is like dressing a work suit with shining mocasini shoes underneath. It doesn't sounds together
Very cool guys..........lookin and soundin like a big block mopar with a gear drive. Are ya leavin the body as is, or will it get the once over too eventually. Too cool either way. Don't worry about the dudes dissin ya about the rims...they're probably still driving their mom's Pacer. 2 thumbs up guys...keep up the good work.
I don't know the first thing about rat rods, but I do know I'd like to have one some day. Do you know if it is possible to put a Cummins diesel engine in a VW and make it drivable? Or is this too much power for the frame or whatever?
I saw this truck at a gas station. The thing is sweet and actually drive-able unlike some of these extreme chops with the body dragging on the ground and no seat. Don't worry about the haters on you tube, the wheels look good, the paint or lack there of looks good, stance is good. You built a very nice ride
@wayneerforsej Talking like an 11 year old girl on your Bedazzled Iphone with your 1997 AOL "L337" speak nonsense ("FAIL") doesnt help your arguement nor your opinion in this case.

gotta admit the rubber on those wheels looks a little thin for my taste but the wheels look killer on it and worth it, nice job!! not every rat rod needs white walls and red rims, some of them use the term rat rod as an excuse to drive a lump of crap down the road with crappy body work and rattle can paint, the best true rat rods are like yours. allot more work to make a nice ride that still has that historical look and not at all crap.
Holy Hell! That is too cool!!! Thanks so much for posting and showing that Dodge is still the most badass truck. I say it all of the time, and this just backs it up.
Nice truck. It's amazing the differances in those years. I've got a 48 f1 which is way different than 47. Urs got more styleized design than ford. U did a great thing bringing back to life. Nice . And to all u haters. Do something even slightly comparable before bashing someone elses work.
Cool old truck!!! I actually like the wheels. Kudos to anyone who puts a cool old piece of American Iron back on the road. The only bitchin' you going to get from me is .... Bicthin' ride man! Great job!!!
beautiful truck gives me an idea of what to put my 440 big block in I was going to do a early 70's d100 but that truck looks better than the old swept side
"True Rat Rod power" ?!?!?!? What the hell is that supposed to mean? The real guys who coined the phrase were/are running vintage Caddy,Olds,Flathead engines in their cars !
truck is sick nasty,I love it the wheels are great what kind and size are they ive got a black 56 dodge im working on ,and think those would look great, also are you runnin a IFS or still on the straight axle?
@shawnmid hahahahahhahaha, and plus the Wheels shows its not a piece of shit, it add the appearance of that this is how the owner wants it, fantastic finish
i have a 46 dodge pickup all original i whant to do a frame swap does any one know a good more modern frame i should use and still run mopar power .....if anyone knows ?
hey there been looking at 60/70 era dodges only this morning came accross pictures of a 47 and fell in love just a question on chassis and suspention is it still the origional chassis? and whats been dont to the suspention ???
I have a 1953 dodge pick-up 5 window for sale no rust, body is straight, everything is there except for the truck bed $600 give me a call at (760)810-1960 for more information.
The stance of your truck with the torque thrust wheels and the sound of it idling away...wow. I own a 1940 and a 1941 Plymouth trucks. The 40 will be a 50's style hot rod with a two carb set up on a 46 straight six. The 41 has all the original parts for a complete restoration. I also have a 46 dodge truck frame and a 318 with a 727 trans for my hot rod truck. Thanks for the inspiration. CDUBYA
